The ill fated commit I made yesterday was a partial attempt to address some of the problems: basically, it boils down to DEBUG blocks that induce extra debugging output that the test framework doesn't know about. I guess the correct thing to do is track all these places down individually and add checks for -dno-debug-output, though if some tests are checking for debug output, that might be tricky.

Hello all,
If I run 'make fast' in the testsuite, with a stage2 compiler that has been built with -DDEBUG, should I be getting extra failures?
You shouldn't, but since we don't test that very often it's possible that some bugs have crept in. What failures are you seeing?
Cheers, Simon
